About the Item

Pair of 1600s Nature Morte di Fiori by 17th-century Italian school, unframed. Oil paintings on canvas with a dark background and finely defined flowers these Baroque still lifes of the Italian school have good compositional balance, the composition is well balanced arranged in a pyramidal pattern with flowers of various types within a vase, fruit at the base and birds at the top. Typical of the seventeenth-century era was precisely, in the field of still life of flowers, the study and to representation of plants of all species, but also of fantasy. I colori sono caldi con sfumature di rossi e bianchi senza contrasti, tutti estremamente delicati e morbidi. These beautiful Italian still lifes from the mid-1600s are made with an abundance of flowers and flowing leaves. The flower arrangement has extreme exuberance and skill in assembling different flowers, gathered in a bouquet. La finalità decorativa è esaltata dalla varietà dei fiori dipinti; si trovano peonie, rose, tulipani, garofani, fiori di campo policromi, ma anche fiori irreali, inventati, di fantasia. In queste composizioni floreali italiane antiche i fiori sono i veri protagonisti in primo piano mentre tutto il resto si rivela come il vaso indefinito in ottone e il piano del tavolo squadrato. Italian school, this pair of antique still lifes of flowers dates from the mid-17th century and has old restorations and imperfections but are in good condition; they were lined and restored to a new frame some seventy years ago and at that time pictorial retouches were made . They are presented unframed and the two works are unsigned. They come from a private Milanese collection.
